Yard Act at Irving Plaza

You don't need to look for utopia anymore because it's right at New York City! Get ready to witness Yard Act for their "Dream Job Tour" at the Irving Plaza on October 12, 2024.

Yard Act just finished their huge run of shows in the UK and EU for spring 2024. Now, it's USA's turn, and this is a show that you should not skip! It's your chance to meet everyone's favorite up-and-coming post-punk band. Vocalist James Smith, bassist Ryan Needham, drummer Jay Russel and guitarist Sam Shipstone is excited to perform their latest masterpiece on the stage.

This tour is in support of their sophomore LP "Where's My Utopia?". The album is co-produced with Gorillaz member Remi Kabaka Jr, so you already know it will be a banger.

"Dream Job", the first single released from the album is an instant fan favorite. The upbeat percussion, catchy bass riffs, incredible vocals and guitar complements the sarcastic lyrics perfectly. There are incredible lines especially in the chorus which makes it a perfect sing-along during the concert.

The song that inspired the name of the tour is a brilliant snapshot of their journey doubling up as a witty commentary. While the career as a musician can seem so bright and glamorous, the band also knows the downside that is carried with it. Now that they are rising to their fame, you can be a part of their rollercoaster journey!

In an interview with NME, Smith said, "Dream Job arrives midway through the narrative arc of the album, but it picks up where the band left off at the end of last year when I'd finally had time to contemplate everything that had happened to us."

Cause a stir in the historic Irving Plaza, the 3-300 square foot ballroom-style music venue with beautiful Victorian design. Its state-of-the-art audio and visual equipment and fantastic sightlines will assure you an unforgettable experience.
